The High Court of Justice has reportedly advised Israel’s national airline El Al to drop legal action against the state over its decision to allow Air India to fly over Saudi airspace on its new route to Tel Aviv.
The court urged El Al to drop the petition it filed earlier this year, the Calcalist business daily said Sunday, and gave the airline a week to respond to the request.
In March, El Al filed an urgent petition to the High Court against the government, Transportation Ministry and the Civil Aviation Authority, claiming that granting the Indian airline permission to fly the route, which goes over Saudi Arabia — significantly reducing the cost and flight time on the New Delhi-Tel Aviv route — gave a foreign company an unfair competitive advantage and violated the state’s commitment to Israel’s national carrier.
